Hi! :)

My world culture teacher told us about this website called - www.freerice.com, and each word you get correct, you are donating 10 *going up by 10 how many you get right* grains of rice to the United Nations to help end world hunger. :)

Post any websites you know of! :)

I saw this on our local news. A good way to help a cause and improve your vocabulary.

Its pretty easy to do all this too. If we could get a sticky with all sites where you can go to make free donations.

That would be a nice sticky. :)

I think I'm going to edit my thread title to: " Charity Websites to help the Less Fortunate ". :)

Just click EDIT on the bottom right of your post, or, you could ask the mods to close it. :)

When you do that it just lets you change words in the post...?

When you click Edit Post on the first post that you posted on your thread, there should be in the same place when you first make a thread, the place where the title should be. :cutie:

Ah I'm so sorry, thank AmberDaze for telling me, you have to click advanced after you click edit... Hehe I forgot that step!
